Pernod Ricard was dealt another blow today in its ongoing effort to sell Havana Club in the United States, but this time they have a plan. First the story and then details on Havanista. This morning the US Supreme Court refused to hear Pernod's case against the Department of Treasury. You may recall Pernod lost a March 2011 ruling by the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia when two of three judges agreed with a lower district court that said the government was correct in blocking Pernod Ricard and Cubaexport from attempting to renew the Havana Club Rum trademark in 2006.
